One of the routes into one of Blackpool's biggest car parks will be closed for a year while work on a £300m leisure development is carried out.
The £300m Blackpool Central leisure development just off the Golden Mile is expected to create over 1,000 jobs for local people, attract 600,000 additional visitors each year and bring millions of pounds of additional spend into the town.
The first phase of development is the creation of a new multi-storey car park, which will free up the existing Central Car Park to enable the leisure phase of the development which includes new attractions, hotel, restaurants, events square and heritage quarter.
The new car park will ensure there is sufficient parking for residents and visitors and the entrance to Central Car Park in Seasiders Way will be closed until Spring 2023 while the work is carried out.
The entrance to Central Car Park at Seasiders Way where it crosses Chapel Street via the bridge will be closed.
This will be from Wednesday, 23 March until spring 2023.
There will be no through route for traffic during this period via Central Car Park and Chapel Street. The diversions will be clearly signposted with traffic being diverted via routes at Parkinson Way/Waterloo Road and Bloomfield Road.

Pedestrian routes will be clearly marked into the town centre and 800 parking spaces will still be available at the existing Central Car Park via the main car park entrance on Central Drive.
